History of Farkle

Farkle (also referred to as 10000 and Zilch) is a wildly popular dice game

of unknown origin. It can be played with just a set of six dice and some paper

for scoring. The rules are simple - providing the perfect mix of luck, strategy,

and risk-taking.

The player with the highest score above 10,000 points on the final round of play

wins!

How to Play Farkle

Each player takes turns rolling the dice. When it's your turn, you roll all six dice

at the same time.

Points are earned every time you roll a 1 or 5, three of a kind, three pairs, a

six-dice straight (1,2,3,4,5,6), or two triplets.

If none of your dice earned points, that's a Farkle! Since you earned no points,

you pass the dice to the next player.

If you rolled at least one scoring die, you can bank your points and pass the

dice to the next player, or risk the points you just earned during this round by

putting some or all of the winning die (dice) aside and rolling the remaining dice.

The remaining dice may earn you additional points, but if you Farkle, you lose

everything you earned during the round.

Scoring is based only on the dice in each roll. You cannot earn points by

combining dice from different rolls.

You can continue rolling the dice until you either Pass or Farkle. Then the next

player rolls the six dice until they Pass or Farkle. Play continues until it is your

turn again.

The final round starts as soon as any player reaches 10,000 or more points.
